At K1ds Count Therapy, our occupational therapy in Indianapolis includes an initial evaluation with assessment, intervention/treatment sessions, regular re-assessments to outline progress or continued areas of focus, and discharge planning. Your child’s OT will communicate with you regularly to outline progress, provide suggestions for carryover and practice outside of the clinic setting, and/or discuss potential changes to the treatment plan.
Our occupational therapists participate in state licensure-required continuing education opportunities to ensure assessment and intervention practices are current with evidenced-based research. Each therapist is provided with a K1ds Count Therapy annual CEU stipend to promote clinical and professional growth.
Our OTs participate in regular in-service learning opportunities together, and value collaborating with KCT professionals of other disciplines to ensure clients receive well-rounded care.
Based on age, there are milestones we’d expect to be achieved related to safety and emergency maintenance, money management, household chores, meal prep and cleanup, community navigation, care of others, and care of pets. Your KCT OT will assist in identifying what can and should be worked on in treatment sessions.
Gross motor coordination and strength is fundamental in facilitating most complex fine and visual motor skills. Our KCT OTs can identify and address deficits in gross motor milestones and strength as it relates to the upper extremities and core, and may refer your child for PT services if appropriate.
Every child’s brain perceives and interprets sensory input in a unique way. When differences in sensory integration and processing are present, it can lead to difficulties in participation across environments (home, school, community). Our KCT OTs can identify and address differences in sensory integration to facilitate enhanced engagement and toleration of stimuli across settings.
The ability to regulate emotions is inherent in participation across environments, as well as establishing and maintaining relationships with peers, friends, teachers, and family members. Emotion regulation can also be strongly tied to sensory integration. Your KCT OT will be able to assess and identify deficits in emotion regulation, and work with you to identify strategies across environments.
Executive functioning skills guide every action and decision we make. These skills continue to develop over time as a child’s brain grows and changes. Executive functioning includes attention, memory, organization, planning, problem solving, cognition, and sequencing. Our OTs can identify and address deficits in executive functioning as they relate to expected age-appropriate skills and tasks.
A child’s most important job is to play! Did you know there are different types of play? Your KCT OT can assist in developing play skills with your child as it relates to expected developmental milestones.
Does your child have a variety of interests and preferred activities that are meaningful to them? Your KCT OT can assist in identifying prerequisite skills required to complete a desired activity, and address deficits based on expected developmental milestones.
Sleep is a vital part of our mental and physical health. If your child has difficulties falling asleep or staying asleep, talk with your KCT OT to identify potential strategies and adjustments to day or nighttime routines.
